Club Cafe - Pittsburgh, PA with Bill Toms and Hard Rain
The great thing about traveling around in the music business is the people you meet along the road. One of these great people is Bill Toms. Bill has been produced by and played with Bruce Springsteen, and has shared the stage with Dylan and The Band, etc. His songwriting is heartland Americana and he's just an all around nice guy. He and his wife Joyce opened their home for us in Pittsburgh for the weekend and showed us the sights, along with playing a bit of music together!
Our first gig together was at the Club Cafe, a premiere live music club in Pittsburgh.
Bill and the band invited me up to do a bit of Gospel music with them, while Gilles chatted up the hardcore fans!
Tomorrow we're staying in Pittsburgh for an afternoon show in the Strip District (!!!) and then we're off to Follansbee, West Virginia for an evening show.
